Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Who needs to complete School Bus ELDT in Arizona?+

Anyone applying for a new School Bus (S) endorsement must complete FMCSA-approved ELDT before taking the AZ MVD skills test. If you already hold a CDL with an S endorsement issued before February 7, 2022, you are grandfathered and do not need ELDT. If you are upgrading your CDL class or adding a new endorsement, you must complete the required ELDT courses.

How long does the School Bus ELDT course take?+

The School Bus ELDT course completes in under 2 hours. You can finish it in one sitting or split it across multiple sessions — there's no time lock between modules.

What does Arizona Motor Vehicle Division require for the S endorsement?+

The AZ MVD requires you to complete FMCSA-approved School Bus ELDT, then pass the AZ MVD knowledge test and the skills test. DLA Academy's course covers all ELDT content mandated by FMCSA. You'll still need to study for the AZ MVD knowledge test separately (or use a DMV prep tool) and arrange behind-the-wheel training with a local provider if required.

Is DLA Academy's School Bus ELDT FMCSA-approved and auto-submitted to the TPR?+

Yes. DLA Academy is FMCSA-approved and listed on the Training Provider Registry. When you complete the School Bus ELDT course, your completion record is automatically submitted to FMCSA within 24 hours. You'll receive a completion certificate for your records and the AZ MVD.

How much does the School Bus ELDT cost?+

The School Bus ELDT course is $20. DLA Academy is the lowest-priced FMCSA-approved option — other providers typically charge $23–$75 for the same course. If you're adding multiple endorsements, consider the 3-Endorsement Bundle (Hazmat + Passenger + School Bus) for $50 and save $10.
